I'll let the erstwhile Mr. Floyd B. Bariscale take over from here:

I have to say that the interior looks great, or at least it does in the moody video lighting. The video is a must-see tour of what appears to be a seriously endangered house. If only its airy high-ceilinged spaces, with outside light coming in from all four sides, would inspire someone with a little cash to rescue it. (Hello Robert? Alison?) The scenes of exterior dilapidation are what tipped me off. Great video, and great song, btw.
Thanks GaylordWilshire! You are awesome!! It is a great video & I wish, as you do, the house will be saved. Seeing the interior in the video, makes you imagine what it was like living in such a grand place, in its day.
Thanks again for the info, I've learned so much from this forum. One of these days I hope to make it back out there(permanently )
